And can you believe the moderator felt the need to 'moderate' my self censored use of (moderated) and (moderated) considering the drivel and nonsense that there has been on here lately

You agreed to some basic rules when you joined this forum. By using bad language, or thinly veiled alternatives, as in your case here, you broke those rules. Then you came back and did it again. You are taking up too much of my time. Is you grasp of the English language so poor, with such a highly  restricted vocabulary, that you can't find other words, which don't break the rules. Try using those swear words somewhere like a GPs surgery or in front of officials and see where it gets you.

Of course, you are correct as always, I should have never questioned you're validity as such a fine up standing member of this forum as you never break the rules do you?

your quote..."Is you grasp of the English language so poor" how ironic, you are a comic George. You make me laugh anyway ;D

And always the same few people involved. Fancy that.

Didnt Julian C2GO claim his recipes deliver the secret to the takeaway taste? Well they didnt for me

I think all the books have made false claims, over the years. None of them delivered what was on the tin:

That's Pat Chapman, Kris Dhillon, various Balti cook books/videos, CBM, Undercover, C2G and many, many more. They all promise that 'until now, it was a secret, but we'll now let you in' and then failed, too.

Even the Kushi Balti book - whilst better than most - does not produce results which sound as good as reports on delicious food served up at the actual restaurant.

Wow George, you must be very keen if youve bought and tried recipes from all of those books to make that statement, have you made the simpler curries like a Madras from each one or do you go for more complicated recipes?

I agree, asking for defined measurements is not asking too much

and a real man will say what it is despite the over stated, over opinionated nature of a pissed up local

Glasgow Infirmary A&E is full of "real men", BIR-TY : 389 attendances per 1000 head of population in 2008/9.  Personally I'd far prefer to accept that in Glasgow it's called "fried rice" than insist that it should be called "pulao rice" and then become just another statistic.  There's also the rather interesting psychological effect of being surrounded by people all of whom call something the same thing (but not the same thing that you or I would call it) : I remember queueing for fish-and-chips in Stornoway, and hearing everyone in front of me asking for a "fish supper".  "Fish supper ?!", I thought to myself : "No way am I going to call it that -- it's bl@@dy 'fish and chips', as every southerner knows".  So, I got to the front of the queue and opened my mouth, fully planning to say "Fish and chips, please".  And what words came out ?  "Fish supper, please".  Just couldn't stop myself !

** Phil.

Don't think i'll post anymore recipes guys this is getting to be hard work..what next death threats..over a curry...  I'm not taking any chances. ....going back to Facebook less hastle

don't stress it bigbaby1, I was only having a bit of fun with Phil,

but its still pilau rice

A wise man knows what it is; a wiser man knows what to call it in Sauchiehall Street if he doesn't want to be on the wrong end of a Glasgow handshake . . .

and a real man will say what it is despite the over stated, over opinionated nature of a pissed up local
